I still don't know where that 20 million number comes from. It certainly isn't an accurate representation of the immigrant population. The total immigrant population (all nationalities, including illegals) is somewhere around 47-48 million, and it was 45 million under Trump. That's a net gain of 3 million people over 4 years.

I did see a Pew research number somewhere that said the total illegal population was something like 11 million. That did not happen in 4 years.

The immigration/fentanyl/criminal/rapist/insanity issue as a whole is complete rubbish. I can't believe there are people with the ability to think critically that get roped into making it an issue of primary concern.

 AT> Q: Is Kamala a Democrat, like Joe?
 AT> A: Yes.

Do you also have two arms and two legs, just like Joe?

Certainly that's a source of unending consternation.

 AT> Q: Does Trump control congress?
 AT> A: No.

Interestingly enough, he did have enough pull to get congress to vote down an immigration bill that both sides liked, seemingly because he needed the immigration platform for his campaign. So maybe that's not as true as we'd like.

 AT> Q: If Trump IS controlling congress, what are Democrats doing about it? 
 AT> A: Nothing.

On THIS point, I'm in 100% agreement. Democrats have done embarrassingly little to solve much of anything in quite a while.

Again, not defending Harris. I'm saying on a lot of this stuff, there's nothing to defend. The primary role of the VP is not to pass legislation. It's all just diversionary garbage.
